PRINTERS GALLEY.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 388,224, dated August 21, 1888.

Application filed November 10, 1887. Serial No. 254,751.

To all whom it may concern.-

Be it known that I, FREDERICK ScHLEY, of Brooklyn, in the county of Kings and State of New York, haveinvented a new and Improved Printers Galley, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.

My invention relates to printers galleys, and has for its object toimprovc the construction of such, reduce the cost of manufacture, and provide a device capable of standing hard usage.

The invention consists in the construction and combination of the several parts, as will be hereinafter fully set forth, and pointed out in the claim.

Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in both the figures.

Figure 1 is a perspective view of the device, and Fig.2 a tra nsverse vertical section thereof.

In carrying out the invention the galley is composed of the bottom A and the angular side and end pieces, B B, which side and end pieces are provided longitudinally, the outer edge with a rib, h.

In uniting the bottom with the angular metal strips the said strips are placed near the edge of the metal bottom piece at the sides and ends adapted to beinelosed, the said strips being so placed that the plain surface of the vertical member b will face inward and the ribbed end of the horizontal member I) be contiguous to and parallel with the respective edges of the said bottom piece. When the angular strips are placed as above set forth, the

(No model.)

edges of the bottom piece are bent upward over and upon the rib of the horizontal members of the said anglc-strip, as shown at D, the angle strips and bottom piece being held in engagement by frictional contact or by soldering the lapped end of the bottom to the anglestrips, or by other well-known or equivalent means. When a galley is thus constructed, it is not only cheaply but strongly made, as the pressure brought to bear against the inner surface of the angular strips will be sustained by the lap or fold D of the bottom piecc,or rather by the entire bottom piece, as will be readily seen by reference to the drawings.

If found more desirable in the manufacture of the galley, the fold may be produced in the edge of the bottom piece after the same has been cut to the proper size, and the angular strips be afterward forced to place and secured.

The rib may be dispensed with without dcparting from the spirit of the invention.

Having thus fully describedinyinvention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- As an improved article of manufacture, a printers galley consisting of the angular side and end pieces, B B, having the vertical longitudinal rib h on the horizontal member I) of the said side and end pieces, and the bottom A, having its edges bent upward over and upon the said rib, set forth.
